Re: [Motion-user] Stream audio with motion

[Mike W. <kno...@gm...>]

You could use the motion triggers to enable recording of video and audio. I
believe Mr Dave does this and even has an example script somewhere around
on github. This would give your motion recordings video, but would not
allow live video with audio. If we ever add support for passthrough rtsp it
could potentially carry audio as well.

I would agree with tosiara though. If you just want live video with audio
motion might not be your project currently.
